ABB Launches Automation Extended: Industrial Innovation Without Disruption

Feb 06, 2026

The Newest Update on ABB DCS
ABB has introduced Automation Extended, a program designed to help industries modernize distributed control systems safely. Building on ABB's proven platforms and extensive DCS experience, the program allows companies to upgrade operations step by step, without interrupting production.

Modernization at Your Own Pace
Industries today face volatile markets, strict regulations, cybersecurity challenges, and a changing workforce. Automation Extended addresses these issues by enabling AI, IoT, and advanced analytics while keeping core processes stable.
Operators can continue using familiar ABB systems such as System 800xA, H&B Freelance 2000, Advant OCS and Advant-800xA, Bailey INFI 90, Master Series, Procontic CS31, and solutions for robots spare parts and industrial automation. This approach provides a safe, structured path to modernization, protecting critical processes while adding flexibility and efficiency.

Open and Modular Architecture
Automation Extended is built on an open, modular framework designed for easy integration and scalability. The system separates the control environment from the digital environment. The control environment ensures reliable operation of mission-critical processes, while the digital environment enables advanced applications, AI, machine learning, and real-time analytics without affecting production.
A unified lifecycle management approach simplifies updates, monitoring, and spare parts management across the ecosystem. With OPC UA and cloud-native architecture, the system supports modular deployment, proactive monitoring of assets, and efficient maintenance.

Supporting ABB Systems and Spare Parts
Automation Extended is integrated with ABB Ability™ System 800xA, Symphony® Plus, and Freelance systems. Companies using ABB robots or spare parts can modernize safely, introducing advanced digital capabilities while ensuring continuity of operations.
Peter Terwiesch, President of ABB's Automation Business Area, said:
"Our customers operate large, complex infrastructures. Automation Extended brings new capabilities to the systems they trust, ensuring security and innovation without disruption."

Moving Forward
With Automation Extended, ABB combines modernization and continuity. By upgrading existing platforms like System 800xA, Advant OCS, and Freelance 2000, and supporting spare parts and robot solutions, industries can adopt new technologies confidently and efficiently.
